Another entertainment highlight will be the spectacle of "Dancing Waters", which makes jets of water actually dance and bow. Making its west coast premiere, this $250,000 stage prop will be in action three times hourly. Kraatz emphasized that no additional admission will be charged for the Dorsey Brothers stage show.

Among the many other highlights are: three completely furnished model homes. One of these is a 60-year-old dwelling that has been remodelled to show what can be... Explosion of Fake Atomic Bomb During Current Maneuvers Described by O By PAT MICHAELS ABOARD FLAGSHIP ELDORADO WITH TASK FORCE 11 (OCNS)—Some 50 Orange County youths are members of the high 60-ship task force that is currently maneuvering off the coast of Southern California in the largest peacetime amphibious operation since the Korean war. The emphasis is on atomic war and I talked to some of the men who had stood on the decks of the aircraft carrier Badoeng Strait to watch a huge atomic mushroom slip into the sky above our flagship. The atom blast was a phony. The missile exploded was a mock atomic bomb that only cost $6600 to build. But it had taken two years of painstaking labor to perfect this imitation atomic bomb that thoroughly recreates the now familiar ball of fire blast. The "facsimile" was developed at the U.S. Navy Special Device Center at Port Washington, Long Island. When it burst, it shattered the silence of the lonely Pacific and rose like a giant tombstone above the Eldorado. Watch In Awe Some miles distant, men like Chief Petty Officer J. M. Smith of Garden Grove, Petty Officer D. W. Freidler of Anaheim, Petty Officer E. B. Thornburg of Garder Grove and Aircraft Technician C. D. Young of Costa Mesa stared in awe as the flame-like cloud swooped into the heavens from ground zero. However, the Orange County seamen weren't the only ones watching this new training device explode with abruptness of a firecracker. Rear Admiral L. S. Sabin, the task force commander, watched in awe, too—and immediately revised some of his strategy beneath this mock cloud of death. Observers from the Atomic Energy Commission the Naval Electronics Laboratory and a host of Army and Air Force technicians also stared with hypnotic fascination at the high plume that rose grotesquely from ground zero. Will Change Plans It was the first time a device of this type had been used in military training. "We are in an atomic age," Admiral Sabin explained. "We should be prepared for it both offensively and defensively." What could the imitation bomb do?

FRANKFORD Vacation Farm Work Program Outlined by Employment Department SACRAMENTO—Youth Farm Work Program for summer employment of students was outlined today by Edward R. Chief of Farm Placement for the California Department of Agriculture. Hayes said that farm work opportunities for which you can qualify will vary in different parts of the State and according to the availability of adult farm hands. However many areas will have suitable work such as picking, packing, and cutting fruit for drying, and student help will be needed and welcomed. In advising students who desire summer farm jobs, Hayes pointed out that they must be strong and physically able to undertake hard work, most of which is in the hot sun. Earnings may be low until one becomes hardened to the work and can acquire skill, he added. "A farm job is not a vacation." Hayes declared, "and the orchard or field is not a playground. Young workers must be willing and able to follow instructions and handle fruit and vegetables carefully without injury to the tree or vine from which they are picked. The farmer's crop represents a year's work in production and means food for the nation. Careles damage or waste in harvesting mean loss—both to the farmer and the nation." Hayes advised students to seek farm work near home or to be accompanied by adults in travel to other areas. Students between 12 and 18 years, except high school graduates, must have work permits from their schools. The Youth Farm Work Program is sponsored by the local offices of the Department of Employment, in cooperation with junior and senior high school and junior college leaders, local farmers, and youth organizations.

"It will bring about changes in battle plans," another said. You could tell by the faces and conversations, of the 12,000 men participating in the manuevers that they had learned a great deal. It was frightening because the mushroom column showed what sea-born devastation could lie in the wake of a real atomic blast at sea. It rammed the message home with the sheer force of its explosion. Asked what the blast accomplished since it was set off, Admiral Sabin said. "There are a number of improvements. Sharper and smarter ship handling, better coordination and discipline of communications and the need for immediate action after atomic attack." These were the concrete, valuable lessons learned. However, the complete results and exact steps taken to accomplish them will remain the Navy's secret for some time. Navy Ever Alert Engineman Richard L. Clodt, son of Erick Clodt, 50420 Illinois St., Anaheim, and Mrs. Hugh Hun-sacker 122 Walnut St., Anaheim, and Seaman Everett L. Parker son of Mr. and Mrs. Sherman Parker of Darlington avenue, Buena Park, stood their watches aboard the Helena at the time of the blast—but even though their eyes were glued to their jobs, the talk and the scuttlebutt that ripped through the ship concerned the "bomb" and what it might have done had it been dropped by enemy forces. To prevent an aggressor from dropping such a bomb, our Navy is working day and night—and these practice manuevers are part of that work.

Students between 12 and 18 years, except high school graduates, must have work permits from their schols. The Youth Farm Work Program is sponsored by the local offices of the Department of Employment, in cooperation with junior ond senior high school and junior college leaders, local farmers, and youth organizations. Student job seekers and youth leaders who desire to supervise and work with students, are requested to contact the local Department of Employment. Hayes urged farmers with expected labor shortages to inform the local employment office of their willingness to hire student labor, and to indicate whether a youth supervisor will also be hired if available. Day-haul transportation of local youth should be offered by the employer and the Department of Employment will arrange pick-up points convenient for workers and farmers. "Farmers with a suitable camp might consider making it available to a supervised student crew," Hayes said, adding that farmers also might consider offering a summertime live-in job to a youth who may have a potential career interest in agriculture. Farmers' cooperation in the Youth Farm Work Program will not only help them to meet the temporary peak needs for labor, Hayes believes, but will also provide a beneficial work experience for young people who might otherwise be idle in our California communities during the summer vacation period. ticipating in the operation are playing an important role in our "new look" Atomic Navy.
